Summary
This study tests whether a nurse-led program combining gentle mind-body exercises and nutritional supplements can help frail older adults become stronger and more independent. 48 people aged 65 and older will be split into three groups: one doing only the exercises, one doing exercises plus nutrition, and a control group. The program lasts 8 weeks, with sessions three times a week.
